Oh goodness it’s already here. Where did the year go? It just seemed like it was Lent yesterday, which it was but let’s not go there.

With Lent comes the added bonus of giving up/ doing something more. And to me that’s the hardest thing. I can never pick what I’m going to do. So this year I started thinking early, I thought about giving up texting, or facebook, which would be really hard for me but I decided that I would end up cheating so that would not be good.

I wanted to pick something that really hit home with me, the verdict was to pray more than usual and to eat better. I hope that I can stick with my plan and I hope that all of you can stick with yours. Feel free to keep me in line and ask me how I’m doing, it will be appreciated.
